According to Jesse Rodgers of ESPN, the Phillies have signed veteran pitcher Brandon Kintzler to a minor-league deal. The contract is set to be worth $3M if he makes the Phils’ roster with $1M in incentives. Just for some added spice, Mark Feinsand noted that Kintzler opted to sign with the Phillies over his former team, the Marlins, due to a chance at making more money. His previous contract was worth $3.25M.
This comes shortly after the Phillies traded RHP Johan Quezada to the Cardinals in exchange for cash considerations, and of course the signing of Chase Anderson.
